To those who choose not to recognize or appreciate Bonds' accomplishments, however, I simply ask that you (a) make an effort to appreciate the fact that even if Bonds has received a boost by performance enhancing drugs, his skill and accomplishments would have landed him in the Hall of Fame without them; and (b) make an effort to be consistent in your outrage when other superstars from this era -- ones that, unlike Bonds, you lauded and appreciated prior to learning about their drug use -- are found to have used performance enhancing drugs, as they inevitably will.
